Friends and Lovers and Others

After a lockdown that lasts many years, the world, nobody remembers how to touch. Creatures of habit try to shed their pet names through a messy, sexy, senseless restoration.

Friends and Lovers and Others

  • Playwrights Foundation: Friends and Lovers and Others by Matthew Macca

    The community of national & local readers for Bay Area Playwrights Festival in 2021 enthusiastically recommends FRIENDS AND LOVERS AND OTHERS as a Semi-Finalist at Playwrights Foundation out of 755 plays. We were deeply moved by the universality and immediacy of the themes at hand, and we're compelled by the play's promise, as it explores the ways we might relearn to love each other, touch each other, and even just hold physical space with each other in a post-pandemic world. We hope this play is widely read, finds dedicated collaborators, and moves swiftly towards production. #BAPF2021
